I wrote my programs in Java using OpenCard Framework (OCF) in order to be cross-platform. I'm trying to use the provided OCF "drivers" of the SUN internal reader but when I begin to exchange APDUs with the card, it suddenly doen't work anymore. Do you know if this OCF driver is ok or have you any one newer better?
OCF (that is bundled with Solaris) does not have any public, officially supported APIs. The supported API for the OCF/SCF stack in Solaris is SCF.
Did you write to the OCF APIs or to the Java SCF APIs?
I wanted to ask something about card to somebody from SUN: I tried to use a Gemplus reader with OCF under Solaris (as claimed compatible on gemplus'website) and obtained unexpecting err msg. I asked Gemplus techies who replied "SUN provided us the OCF driver, ask them!" Have you any email address to provide me to ask such thing?
Solaris' OCF does not support non-Sun Card Terminal Drivers (OK, I know it's the *Open* Card Framework, but we took a very early snapshot of OCF 1.0 back in 1998 or so and never really updated it, so I'm not ever sure what CT APIs might be missing).
If you just want to do APDU exchanges with the internal reader, use SCF (C or Java) or the PC/SC-SCF shim.
PS: you should provide a INSTALL.TXT with the shim file. My favourite sysadmin needed nearly a full day to install the package, and finally installed, we didn't know how to use it :)
Well, the shim is not distributed by Sun, it's distributed by the MUSCLE folks, so hopefully Dave will see this e-mail and can respond.
What issues did you have?

Never make assumptions... they are usually wrong.
